> No, it fundamentally doesn’t… because, no matter where they go in the world, irregardless of all of their own (real, or imagined) hardship, when they arrive they _will_ be treated better than a non-white person that is otherwise of the same socio-economic standing arriving from the same origin point… and that’s just an observable fact, You utter clown. My wife and I lived in the US for three years. My wife - who is black, was always treated with kindness and respect by everyone we met - people of all persuasions. We made many good friends, who we are still in contact with to this day. > It’s OK to be racist. We’re ALL racist… I'm not. I adore my wife, and my two mixed-race children, my wife's whole side of the family, and all her friends. From what I can see, all of this is just projection on your part. They would be offended by your condecending and divisive ideas. |

Yes, you are. We ALL are… it’s not possible for a human being born in our moment of our species’ collective history, nor one born at any earlier moment, to not be racist, any more than it is for them to not be prone to sexism, nationalism, ableism, or for that matter just simple confirmation bias. We simply aren’t far enough removed from very recent — never mind still ongoing — atrocities committed solely on skin-color bias for the relatively small number among us who have actively engaged in what was until very recently criminalized miscegenation to claim to be free of tribalism. You’ll know you’ve stopped being racist when you and your wife and your children don’t even have a term for the differences between you, and never have had one… not a moment sooner.
